After talking about opening a third library for quite some time, those talks turned into reality when we heard that Deer Park Library (located at Yonge and St. Clair) and Northern District (located at Yonge and Eglinton) were interested in the program, and had available rooms! They are opening in October, and January, respectively. Everyone involved with Chess in the Library are pleasantly surprised at how fast this program is growing.
In addition, we are still looking for responsible volunteers who are interested in helping organize the programs. If you live nearby a location that is already open, live near a location opening, or even live too far away from an open/opening library (it’s possible we can open the program at a library closer to you), you can give us a shout at info@chessinthelibrary.com and we will try to arrange a volunteer position for you.
Also, I’d like to welcome Jan Lazo, who is living in Toronto this year, (he moved from Calgary) as he decided to become a volunteer for Chess in the Library. We are extremely pleased to have him join the team of growing volunteers!
